We get a full SEC schedule this weekend. Are they good games? No! But they are football games and with the end of the season rapidly approaching, we will take whatever football games we can get, even if they don't look particularly exciting on paper.

Watching Alabama, Georgia

The Crimson Tide gave up a season-high four sacks to Mississippi State last week, but it's unlikely they'll have similar trouble against The Citadel. Tua Tagovailoa is expected to play Saturday and Nick Saban said the Heisman contender won't be limited, despite leaving the Mississippi State game with an injury last week.

Former Georgia quarterback D.J. Shockley, an SEC Network analyst, answers the question of whether it's fair or unfair to call the Southeastern Conference a three-team league based on how Alabama, Georgia and Auburn dominated it last season.

Bowl stakes

Two teams could become bowl eligible this week, and one needs a win to keep the bowl hopes alive.

If Tennessee tops Missouri, they'll seal a bowl trip -- and those crucial extra practices in December. Missouri's won its last two games, including a win over Florida earlier this month. There's also some added motivation for UT fans, since former coach Derek Dooley is now the offensive coordinator at Missouri.
